The Freedom Center of Missouri is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization dedicated to research and public-interest litigation in six key areas: freedom of expression, economic liberty (the right to earn a living), property rights, religious liberties, limited government, and government transparency.
Josh and Dave first met when they were both studying at Vanderbilt University, where they both earned graduate degrees in theology jointly with their law degrees. Dave talks about his path from pursuing ministry to law school, working for the Institute for Justice and the Becket Fund, then moving with his wife and cofounder Jenifer Zeigler Roland to Missouri to work at the Show Me Institute. Finally, they began the Freedom Center of Missouri in Jenifer’s hometown of Mexico, Missouri.
Josh and Dave discussed the following organizations with similar goals as the Freedom Center of Missouri, three of which Dave worked for:
- The Becket Fund Religious Liberty for All
- Institute for Justice (litigating for economic liberty, school choice, private property, and First Amendment liberties)
- Show-Me Institute Where Liberty Comes First
- The Heritage Foundation
